Cheap Wedding Chair Covers
by Wedding Guru. Filed under: chair covers, weddings.When anyone is planning the wedding of their dreams, they will need to think about their budget and how small details can add to it – this is why choosing cheap wedding chair covers will help you to gain the best available chair covers for your wedding reception but also have the true value of what is going to be gained from them. There are a number of ways to reduce your budget costs, but you will still be able to still have a wonderful wedding. Cheap wedding chair covers are items that can be found and will surely make the wedding reception look elegant and feel special, but you don’t have to break the bank when doing so.
Chair covers are simple pieces of fabric sewn together to make a slip cover for ugly chairs. They usually blend in with the color scheme of the wedding and they look lovely when tied with a big organza sashe. The sashes are not expensive and can be hired from a wedding chair cover specialist for a minimal amount per slip cover. And, if you wanted to, then you could ask a dress maker to make them specifically for you, but many brides do choose to hire them as this can be cost effective for them.
You can find sewing instructions online or at a fabric store to make it cheaper and purchase the fabric at a cheap factory outlet or local fabric market. If you don’t have anyone to sew them for you and you don’t sew yourself, the other option is to just purchase a rectangular piece of fabric, make a hem of some kind, even with an iron on and drape it over the chair. This will create a less fitted look, and can be tied with the ribbon so that it still looks professional and structured, but you will find that many people don’t prefair this type of cheap chair cover.
Another way to get cheap wedding covers for your chairs is to find a chair rental company that does not necessarily do weddings. They will use chair covers for parties and other events, and might be a little cheaper to hire from them. Also, you could try calling diferent conference venues and hotels to see if they will hire their chair covers provided there is no other event at the time; the annoying thing with this is that the hotel may not be able to give you a straight yes or no and it could be the case that you won’t know until the last minute.
If your reception is at a hotel that already offer wedding chair covers then this will be a bonus, but they will most probably be plain white or ivory. If you want another color, then you could choose a colored ribbon or sash to compliment the bland chair cover which will then have a good low cost effect. Another tip for getting cheap wedding chair covers is to not get covers at all – you could try to find a wedding reception venue that already has nice looking chairs that don’t need covers at all.
When you are planning to host a major reception, such as a wedding, you want the set up of the tables to look as elegant as possible. There are many locations where you will find chair cover rentals. Many rental companies have showrooms that you can actually visit to get ideas over the ways in which you can decorate the tables and chairs for your event. You can also browse their websites to see what they offer through the photos and virtual tours online – many chair rental companies will offer chair cover rentals and other wedding linen rentals in a number of different colors and sizes.
When choosing the company for wedding chair cover rentals, a number of experts recommend that you look for certain things about the company itself. These include looking at how many years the company has been in business and the reputation that it has built up with its clientele. You could also take recommendations from the wedding reception venue that you have chosen, as they will generally have a good reputation with the rental company and know which are of the highest quality.
Maybe you have attended a function where the table cloths and napkins were just perfect and the chairs and sashes fitted the chairs perfectly – if you have, then you should inquire about the name of the company the host used and contact that company to see how they are for prices.
You will need to look at the options and service of chair cover rentals, as nearly all rental companies will give you the option of picking up the linens and placing them on the chairs and tables yourself. This is not a time-consuming task and depending on the number of guests you can easily place the coverings on 100 chairs within an hour working alone.
If you don’t want to do this and want to make sure the room is worthy of entertaining royalty, you can have the rental company put on the slip covers for a small fee. If you pick up the wedding decorations, wedding linens or chair covers yourself, you also have to return them to the company. But, if you choose delivery and set up then the staff will return to collect the linens when the reception is over.
Since companies that deal with chair cover rentals are really busy with weddings in the summer months and Christmas parties, if you are planning on having a dinner during these times then you will need to make your booking well in advance. For weddings, these companies prefer you to book at least six months in advance. You may think this is not possible because you will not have a confirmed guest list at this point, but the company only needs an approximate number to reserve the linens and chair cover rentals in the size and colors that you need. Once you have your guest list confirmed, you can change the initial number upwards or downwards tp your specific requirements for the big day.
Also, you will need to know whether your wedding reception venue uses round, square or rectangular shaped tables, and you will need to measure the size and shape of the chairs to make sure you get the cheap wedding chair covers that you want and to fit the way you want. There are generally six different styles of chairs which are used at receptions and even if those at the venue do not know the name of the style of chair they use, you can match it up with a picture of the chair from the wedding chair cover company website.

Hi
Please can quote the price to hire 300 chair covers for my wedding this year? Please could i have your best quote for these? As I have seen there are a number of different quotes from a range of suppliers in the UK and I’m unsure about which one to choose – is choosing the lowest the best option?
Many thanks
